Episode 565 of the Sports Media Podcast with Richard Deitsch features a roundtable discussion with Jon Lewis of Sports Media Watch and Austin Karp of Sports Business Journal. In this podcast we discuss Major League Baseball's new three-year media rights agreements with ESPN, NBCUniversal and Netflix; what we think of the deal; the return of NBC to regularly airing MLB games on its broadcast network for the first time in 26 years; the partnership with Netflix and whether Netflix can make the Home Run Derby bigger; ESPN getting the rights to sell and distribute MLB.TV, the league’s out of market streaming service and a 30-game package exclusively on ESPN’s linear networks; whether Sunday Night Baseball can become a franchise; will this help Peacock, and more. You can subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and more.
